I wonder if I can write this history, or if on every page there will be some sneaking show of a bitterness I thought long dead. I think myself cured of all spite, but when I touch pen to paper, the hurt of a boy bleeds out with the sea-spawned ink, until I suspect each carefully formed black letter scabs over some ancient scarlet wound.

One can only walk so far from one's true self before the bond either snaps, or pulls one back.

Someday is someday, and maybe it will be or maybe it won't. This is a human thing, to worry about things that may or may not come to be. You can't eat meat until you've killed it.

Well,the fun part of being a writer is that it's like making a wonderful film, with no limit on my budget. I can design the sets, the costume, the lightings, I write the script, and then I get to perform all the roles as I step into each character's skin, zip up, and adopt that point of view. So, to me, they are all compelling and fascinating.

When both my editors say 'This is really bad, you need to change this,' I ignore that at my peril.

Every writer knows a lot more about their characters and story than actually makes it onto the page.

As I apologized to her a flicker of panic raced through me and then faded away. There wasn't enough life left in me to panic. I'd made a mistake and I was dying. Apparently not even a Speck afterlife was available to me. I'd simply stop being. Apparently I hadn't died correctly. Oops.

How different would our perception of reality be if... we discarded the mundane events that cannot coexist with our dreams?

Anticipating pain was like enduring it twice. Why not anticipate pleasure instead?

It's all connected. When you save any part of the world, you've saved the whole world. In fact, that's the only way it can be done.

It's too late to apologize for. I have already forgiven you.

Her stillness was such a contrast to all the jumbled communication inside me that I suddenly felt what a tiresome fellow I was, always filling the air with the rattle of words and anxieties.
